ok so i went home for a couple days to get ski shit in order, relax, ski, wax skis for 6 hrs... well before i came back to school i wanted a good book to read and my dad has plenty so he gave me some he thought would be good and then in perusing the shelves i saw orwells 1984. i thought hey ive never read that, i should, so i grabbed it. then i had to take a shit. so i went into my parents bathroom and sat down. in there was a basket well stocked with reading material so i picked up a national geographic... flip it open... and whats the first article i see about? national security. it was describing just what kind of surveilance measures are already being done ( to the extent of their knowledge) and what is planned or being researched and shit its scary. its worse than 1984 im told... so i want to live in a cave in the woods. november national geographic i believe, look into it.

wow, that book is totally awesome. I read it a few years ago for a school assignment and it has been on of my favorites since then! I recommend everyone reading it because it pops up in discussions all the time! Great book.

yeah its such a good book. Scary tohugh. IT is scary how much of this stuff is already happening in America. LIke the patriot act. A lot fo my frends are retardsa and are liek yeah that shit will never happen but they are too ignorant to see that it is happening allready. I get in some heated arguments about this book. ANimal Farm is also really good.

(trust me, the '' things aren't actually there)

 
seriously though, try and find that nat. geo.... its scared me to know how far they want to go.

to me, a brave new world was waaay more interesting, as far as story lines go. another common themed book is farenheit 451. i know its sort of juvenile, but i still like it.

Brave New World is an intense, incredible book

'This one goes out to all the depressed women in the house.

Whether you taken the Prozac, the Zanax, or the Pax, or whatever the hell they put in the caps.

I want y'all to come up to the front of the stage, grab me a shot of something along the way.

Put a smile on the front of your head.'

And Paradise is real good too. If Brave New World is Huxley's portrait of a distopia, than Paradise is his portrait of a utopia.

ive read Fahrentheit 451, 1984 and am reading Brave New world all for the same class. 451 is the best, i found the actual book of 1984 to be boring except the end, but the concept was real interesting and it like what is already starting to happen to us.

yeah 1984 is pretty depressing. and every once in a while the similarities of the book and our world surface and u stop for a minute and think about the scary progression to orwells world

well, it's good sopme people are finally getting scared...you should be. Freedom? freedom? YEAH RIGHT!!! freedom to do what they say to.....I can only do what is considered right......fuck that! I think I shouold be able to walk down the street drinking a beer....whats the danger to society there? so many stupid fucking laws...full of shit....

I wrote a paper on the combined theories of: farenheit 451, a clockwork orange, 1984, and brave new world.

got 100%

i think the best is Brave new world. second farenheit 452, then 1984, and a clockwork orange..but they're all amazing in their own way.

^ You seem like a bit of an activist...

Brave new world is awesome, and it tops the list of books people wish they'd never read, just because they were happier beforehand.

 
Whatever satisfies yer 'Will to Power'. If killing old pawnbrokers don't do it (ala Raskolnikov), then why not be an activist. After all, this is the land of hobbies.

you guys should watch a film called 'Equilibrium', it's very good, starring Christian Bale. It's very much 1984 meets the Matrix, very worth while.

Yeah 1984 definitely was one of the best books I ever read. That or Lord of the Flies

im a wannabe activist, a wannabe hippie, and a wannabe philosopher. But Im not sure about who I am yet, so I can't be something else first.

^ If you wanna be a philosopher, you might need to learn some philosophy.... go to that philosophy jokes thread and study till you get all the jokes.

 
read it, got them. I have learned much philosophy, but I don't think I can call myself a philosopher. The best stuff in the world is material by OSHO. An enlightened indian man...Im tellin ya, his stuff could destroy and save the world.

they don't even let his dangerous stuff into the country....I got some from india..but they won't sell it in NA, it could destroy our society.

check it out.

'The rebellious spirit' and 'From Unconsciousness to consciousness'.

i just wrote a paper on how mass media is the new big brother (from 1984). still awaiting my professor's comments though.

 
yeah, thats awesome that you're writing about stuff like that

everyone should.

We study books in class for a reason.

heres the problem with me and books: i read and i see what is an obvious metaphor/ connection whathave you... and im just like shit, whats that supposed to mean. if i were to ask the other it would be something like 'that represents the suffering of human kind in a condition of.....' etc.... or that will just be the meaning behind like... a kitten that was randomly depicted to be sitting on the side of the road. yeah.
